comparison: Sara has three times as many pencil erasers as Sam together they have 28 erasers how many erasers does Sara have

2 answers:

8 0

You can do this problem algebraically by assigning variables. If Sara has 3 times Sam we can say Sam is x and Sara is 3x and together they have 28.

Which looks like
3x + x = 28
4x = 28 ( divide both side by 4)
x= 7

So Sara have 3x which after substitution or replacement looks like this
3 x 7 = 21.
So Sara have 21 pencil eraser.

What is the z score associated with 75 percentile

ddd [48]

Answer:

First, determine how many standard deviations above the mean one would have to be to be in the 75th percentile. This can be found by using a z table and finding the z associated with 0.75. The value of z is 0.674. Thus, one must be .674 standard deviations above the mean to be in the 75th percentile
